Tuition Preschool:

Our tuition preschool is a developmentally appropriate program enhancing the social, physical, intellectual, and emotional development of three and four year old children. In the 2024-2025 school year, we will be offering both full-day and half-day tuition program options, in a 5, 3 or 2 day a week schedule for children who are age 3 or older by September 1st. Our full day programming is from 8:15am-3:00 pm, and our half day programs run 8:15-11:00 am, and 12:15-3:00 pm.

GSRP:

Great Start Readiness Program (GSRP) is the #1 preschool program in the country. It is a state-funded, high-quality program that is provided to school districts through the county. It is for children who are age 4 on September 1st who meet the eligibility requirements. The FAQ below has more information about GSRP.

Early Childhood Program (ECP) - Special Education Preschool:

Our special education preschool classroom is a part of Allen Park Public Schools, and serves a range of students with developmental delays. Students are admitted into the program through an evaluation process, and must have a qualifying Individualized Education Plan (IEP) to enter the program. This is a half day program, that is 5 days per week for preschool students starting at age 3. Please see our district special education page for more information.
